Linz in Focus

Last week I was in Austria without Johnny and the kids. I went to the ECM Austrian Prayer days in Salzburg. I went with some folks from the ECM office for a couple of days.

We had a great time with the Austrian team. We had the chance to chat with one another and pray for one another and find out what the team is doing Austria. It was good to hear how God is moving in the Austrian church. It was a time of refreshing and relaxation.

It was strange for me being at something like that on my own because we are normally there as a family. It was a chance for me to spend some time on my own in Austria which I have never done before. It also made a wee bit more clear to me that learning the language is going to be a big hurdle to get over.

Well we are drawing to the end of a busy week for us but especially for Lee and Johnny.

Lee is just finishing his week of stats and he has worked so hard, so tonight we are going to eat junk food and watch a couple of DVDs….  Sore tummy’s here we come.

Meanwhile Johnny is away in Scotland (Glasgow) He is running a conference on behalf of ECM and in conjunction with some other mission agency’s they are focusing on mission in Europe. This is happening on Saturday please pray for the conference.

When Johnny returns home on Sunday we have 4 hours together then I leave to go to the Austrian prayer days. I will be going with some folks from the ECM office here in Northampton.  Please pray for me as I go because it will be the first time I have been abroad on my own without Johnny and without the kids. I am looking forward to it. Please pray for the kids and Johnny while I am away.

Rachel is the only one that has not been mentioned but she is well. Rachel and her class are doing a project on the Queen and on Wednesday they recreated a street party to celebrate the coronation of the Queen. Now she has become quite obsessed with all things to do with the Queen. Oh dear….
